Paws Patrol's primary mission is to Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) feral/stray cats to their existing colonies once they have been vaccinated and spayed or neutered. The goal is to stabilize the existing colony and to ensure the cats are healthy, while working to reduce cat overpopulation in the long term. When we trap sociable kittens and cats, we place them in foster homes or with another local rescue group until they can be adopted into permanent homes.

When volunteers are available, Paws Patrol will foster orphaned kittens, nursing moms and their kittens, and tame stray cats until they can be adopted. If foster resources are not available, every effort will be made to place the kittens/cats with a local no-kill facility, such as The Animal League of Green Valley or The Hermitage.
Every foster volunteer must complete and submit a Foster Care Profile to Shari Joubert, Foster Coordinator.
Each foster animal is owned by Paws Patrol and, therefore, Paws Patrol makes the final determination on the care for each animal, however, when the foster family feels that immediate care is needed, they should immediately contact Duval Animal Hospital, or in an emergency, Animal Care Center. Paws Patrol will pay for all medical expenses.
In general, these are the responsibilities of each foster home.
When it is time for a foster animal to be adopted, the foster volunteer will work with Patti Hogan to screen applicants and select the best home.
